(Affine) $\mathcal{W}$-algebras are a family of vertex algebras defined by the generalized Drinfeld-Sokolov reductions associated with a finite-dimensional reductive Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$ over $\mathbb{C}$, a nilpotent element $f$ in…
We develop the theory of ``branch algebras'', which are infinite-dimensional associative algebras that are isomorphic, up to taking subrings of finite codimension, to a matrix ring over themselves. The main examples come from groups acting…
We introduce the notion of the ell-weight lattice and the ell-root lattice adapted to the study of finite-dimensional representations of quantum affine algebras. We then study the ell-weights of the fundamental representations and show that…
In a Borel subalgebra U(B) of the sl(2) loop algebra, we introduce a highest weight vector $\Psi$. We call such a representation of U(B) that is generated by $\Psi$ highest weight. We define a generalization of the Drinfeld polynomial for a…
We introduce parabolic degenerations of rational Cherednik algebras of complex reflection groups, and use them to give necessary conditions for finite-dimensionality of an irreducible lowest weight module for the rational Cherednik algebra…
Braverman and Finkelberg have recently proposed a conjectural analogue of the geometric Satake isomorphism for untwisted affine Kac-Moody groups. As part of their model, they conjecture that (at dominant weights) Lusztig's q-analog of…
We introduce the notion of Hopf algebroids, in which neither the total algebras nor the base algebras are required to be commutative. We give a class of Hopf algebroids associated to module algebras of the Drinfeld doubles of Hopf algebras…
We explain how quantum affine algebra actions can be used to systematically construct "exotic" t-structures. The main idea, roughly speaking, is to take advantage of the two different descriptions of quantum affine algebras, the…
The Drinfled realization of quantum affine algebras has been tremendously useful since its discovery. Combining techniques of Beck and Nakajima with our previous approach, we give a complete and conceptual proof of the Drinfeld realization…
For every semi-simple Lie algebra one can construct the Drinfeld-Jimbo algebra U. This algebra is a deformation Hopf algebra defined by generators and relations. To study the representation theory of U, Drinfeld used the KZ-equations to…
We consider a quantum affine algebra realized in two-dimensional non-linear sigma models with target space three-dimensional squashed sphere. Its affine generators are explicitly constructed and the Poisson brackets are computed. The…
We define and study an analogue of the Baum-Connes assembly map for complex semisimple quantum groups, that is, Drinfeld doubles of $ q $-deformations of compact semisimple Lie groups. Our starting point is the deformation picture of the…
In this paper, we give defining relations of the affine Lie superalgebras an and defining relations of a super-version of the Drinfeld[D]-Jimbo[J] affine quantized universal enveloping algebras. As a result, we can exactly define the affine…
We develop a Borel-de Siebenthal theory for affine reflection systems by classifying their maximal closed subroot systems. Affine reflection systems (introduced by Loos and Neher) provide a unifying framework for root systems of…
In this paper we construct a class of new irreducible modules over untwisted affine Kac-Moody algebras $\widetilde{\mathfrak{g}}$, generalizing and including both highest weight modules and Whittaker modules. These modules allow us to…
We develop a new method for obtaining branching rules for affine Kac-Moody Lie algebras at negative integer levels. This method uses fusion rules for vertex operator algebras of affine type. We prove that an infinite family of ordinary…
We further define two-parameter quantum affine algebra $U_{r,s}(\widehat{\frak {sl}_n})$ $(n>2)$ after the work on the finite cases (see [BW1], [BGH1], [HS] & [BH]), which turns out to be a Drinfel'd double. Of importance for the quantum…
Rao and Zhao classified the irreducible integrable modules with finite dimensional weight spaces for the untwisted affine superalgebras which are not $\hat{A}(m,n)$ ($m\ne n$) or $\hat{C}(m)$. Here we treat the latter affine superalgebras…
Let $U_\hbar\mathfrak{g}$ denote the Drinfeld-Jimbo quantum group associated to a complex semisimple Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. We apply a modification of the $R$-matrix construction for quantum groups to the evaluation of the universal…
In this paper we use the Etingof-Kazhdan quantization of Lie bi-superalgebras to investigate some interesting questions related to Drinfeld-Jimbo type superalgebra associated to a Lie superalgebra of classical type. It has been shown that…
